M6A in 5’ untranslated regions promotes cap-independent translation of mRNA

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a widespread internal RNA modification whose function is poorly understood. Here we report that m6A residues within the 5'UTR promote a novel form of cap-independent translation which is mediated through an interaction between m6A residues and the translation initiation factor, eIF3. We performed m6A profiling in cells subjected to heat shock stress and observed increased 5'UTR methylation after heat shock. For these studies, we used single-nucleotide resolution m6A mapping (miCLIP), which enables the detection of m6A residues separately from m6Am residues. Thus, the goal of these experiments was to identify m6A residues which are increased in the 5'UTR after heat shock stress.

m6A in 5â untranslated regions promotes cap-independent translation of mRNA

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a widespread internal RNA modification whose function is poorly understood. Here we report that m6A residues within the 5'UTR promote a novel form of cap-independent translation which is mediated through an interaction between m6A residues and the translation initiation factor, eIF3. We present eIF3a PAR-iCLIP data which demonstrate that eIF3 predominantly binds mRNAs within the 5'UTR. eIF3 binding sites are also in proximity to m6A residues within the 5'UTR of cellular mRNAs. Two replicates of eIF3a PAR-iCLIP in HEK293T cells.

Single-nucleotide resolution mapping of m6A and m6Am throughout the transcriptome

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant modified base in eukaryotic mRNA and has been linked to diverse effects on mRNA fate and function. Current m6A mapping approaches rely on immunoprecipitation of m6A-containing RNA fragments to identify regions of transcripts that contain m6A. This approach localizes m6A residues to 100-200 nt-long regions of transcripts. The precise position of m6A in mRNAs cannot be identified on a transcriptome-wide level because there are no chemical methods to distinguish between m6A and adenosine. Here we show that anti-m6A antibodies can induce specific mutational signatures at m6A residues after ultraviolet light-induced antibody-RNA crosslinking and reverse transcription. Similarly, we find these antibodies induce mutational signatures at N6, 2’-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am), a nucleotide found at the first encoded position of certain mRNAs. Using these mutational signatures, we map m6A and m6Am at single-nucleotide resolution in human and mouse mRNA and identify snoRNAs as a novel class of m6A-containing ncRNAs. UV-crosslinking and immunoprecipitation with m6A-specific antibodies was used to map m6A and m6Am in cellular RNA with single nucleotide resolution.

Mettl3-dependent m6A modulation of mRNAs in the Drosophila brain attenuates the stress response

Project description:We observe the increase of stress resilience in Drosophila in which the m6A methyltransferase Mettl3 is knocked down. Mettl3-dependent m6A is present in the 5' UTR of genes enriched for neurogenesis and signaling pathways, and determine that Mettl3-dependent m6A regulates the decay of heat shock chaperones. Expression levels of genes with Mettl3-dependent m6A are increased with the reduction of Mettl3 and with heat shock stress in the brain.

Identification of m6A residues at single nucleotide resolution using eCLIP and an accessible custom analysis pipeline

Project description:We have developed a modified eCLIP-based method (meCLIP) to identify m6A residues at single-nucleotide resolution. By coupling the improvements of eCLIP with an easy-to-use computational pipeline, we have successfully identified over 50,000 unique m6A residues in the two breast cancer cell lines that were analyzed (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) and over 8,000 unique residues in HEK-293 cells. We compared these residues to the sites called using the currently most utilized m6A identification method (miCLIP).

Cap-specific terminal N6-methylation of RNA by an RNA polymerase II-associated methyltransferase.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A), a major modification of messenger RNAs (mRNAs), plays critical roles in RNA metabolism and function. In addition to the internal m6A, N6, 2'-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) is present at the transcription start nucleotide of capped mRNAs in vertebrates. However, its biogenesis and functional role remain elusive. Using a reverse genetics approach, we identified PCIF1, a factor that interacts with the serine-5-phosphorylated carboxyl-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II, as a cap-specific adenosine methyltransferase (CAPAM) responsible for N6-methylation of m6Am. The crystal structure of CAPAM in complex with substrates revealed the molecular basis of cap-specific m6A formation. A transcriptome-wide analysis revealed that N6-methylation of m6Am promotes the translation of capped mRNAs. Thus, a cap-specific m6A writer promotes translation of mRNAs starting from m6Am.

eIF3 and its mRNA-entry-channel arm contribute to the recruitment of mRNAs with long 5'-untranslated regions

Project description:Translation initiation in eukaryotes is multi-step pathway and the most regulated phase of translation. Eukaryotic initiation factor 3 is the largest and most complex of the translation initiation factors, and it contributes to events throughout the initiation pathway. In particular, eIF3 appears to play critical roles in mRNA recruitment. More recently, eIF3 has been implicated in driving the selective translation of specific classes of mRNAs. However, unraveling the mechanism of these diverse contributions — and disentangling the roles of the individual subunits of the eIF3 complex — remains challenging. We employed ribosome profiling of budding yeast cells expressing two distinct mutations targeting the eIF3 complex. These mutations either disrupt the entire complex or subunits positioned near the mRNA-entry channel of the ribosome which appear to relocate during or in response to mRNA binding and start-codon recognition. Disruption of either the entire eIF3 complex or specific targeting of these subunits affects mRNAs with long 5’-untranslated regions and whose translation is more dependent on eIF4A, eIF4B, and Ded1 but less dependent on eIF4G, eIF4E, and PABP. Disruption of the entire eIF3 complex further affects mRNAs involved in mitochondrial processes and with structured 5’-untranslated regions. Comparison of the suite of mRNAs most sensitive to both mutations with those uniquely sensitive to disruption of the entire complex sheds new light on the specific roles of individual subunits of the eIF3 complex.

m6A/m-Seq of mouse adult cortex of Mettl3 cKO or Fto cKO mice

Project description:N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) and N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) are abundant mRNA modifications that regulate transcript processing and translation. The role of both, here termed m6A/m, in the stress response in the adult brain in vivo are currently unknown. Here, we investigated the effect of gene deletion of Mettl3, a m6A methyltransferase, and Fto, a m6A and m6Am demethlyase, induced in adulthood in excitatory neurons of the neocortex and hippocampus (Camk2a-Cre Mettl3 or Fto cKO) on the cortical epitranscriptome. PolyA-RNA-fragments from 3-5 replicates per group were processed both as m6A/m-sample (RNA immunoprecipiation RIP with an m6A and m6Am antibody) and RNA-input sample.

eIF3 Engages with 3’-UTR Termini of Highly Translated mRNAs in Neural Progenitor Cells [APA-Seq]

Project description:Stem cell differentiation involves a global increase in protein synthesis to meet the demands of specialized cell types. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this translational burst and the involvement of initiation factors remains largely unknown. Here, we investigate the roles of eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) in early differentiation of human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived neural progenitor cells (NPCs). Using Quick-irCLIP and alternative polyadenylation (APA)-Seq, we show eIF3 crosslinks to many neurologically relevant mRNAs in NPCs. Our data reveal eIF3 predominantly interacts with 3’ untranslated region (3’-UTR) termini of multiple mRNA isoforms, adjacent to the poly(A) tail. High eIF3 crosslinking at 3’-UTR termini of mRNAs correlates with high translational activity, as determined by ribosome profiling. We identify the transcriptional regulator inhibitor of DNA binding 2 (ID2) mRNA as a case in which active translation levels and eIF3 crosslinking are dramatically increased upon early NPC differentiation. Furthermore, we find that eIF3 engagement at 3’-UTR ends is dependent on polyadenylation. The results presented here show that eIF3 engages with 3’-UTR termini in highly translated mRNAs, supporting a role of mRNA circularization in the mechanisms governing mRNA translation in NPCs.
